globinfo freexchange And, to paraphrase Cohen's epic song lyrics, 'we are guided by the beauty of our movement'. The second big test for Bernie Sanders and the progressive movement in New Hampshire was 100% successful. After the Iowa fiasco , where, despite all the dirty tricks, Bernie won the popular vote, progressives put themselves in alarm mode prior to the New Hampshire battle. We already mentioned , the establishment probably used Pete Buttigieg as the "canary in the mine" to test the dynamics of the primaries in the premiere. As Buttigieg has no potential to win in national level, they used him in Iowa to measure the strength of the progressive movement in real conditions. The main target, of course, was to slow down Bernie's momentum. A glorious victory in Iowa could boost Bernie's popularity even more and make many moderates start to realize that he is the real deal. That he is the only one who can beat Trump. Then, we would probably wit

Silicon Valley billionaire Reid Hoffman funded the creation of ACRONYM, the group that sabotaged the Iowa caucus results, after bankrolling voter manipulation campaigns including the notorious online “false flag operation” in Alabama’s 2017 senate race. by Max Blumenthal Part 3 - Project Birmingham: From New Knowledge to no knowledge The 2017 senate election in Alabama was one of the most dramatic races of President Donald Trump’s first term in office. Treated by national media as a referendum on Trump in a red state, it pitted a far-right Republican, Roy Moore, against Doug Jones, a moderate Republican who ran as a Democrat. In the end, Jones won an upset victory in a deep red state, thrilling Democrats across the country. As Dan Cohen wrote in a series of reports for The Grayzone , the outcome of the 2017 Alabama race was heavily influenced by an online disinformation operation. The campaign, which was unknown to voters at the time, was called Project Birmingham. S

Behind the app that delayed Iowa’s voting results is a dark money operation funded by anti-Sanders billionaires. Its top donor, Seth Klarman, is a Buttigieg backer who has dumped money into pro-settler Israel lobby groups. by Max Blumenthal Part 4 - Battling Bernie with hedge fund money and sexism claims Like Klarman, Donald Sussman is a hedge funder who has channeled his fortune into Pacronym. He has given $1 million to the Super PAC and was also top donor to Hillary Clinton in 2016. Sussman’s Paloma Partners operates through a series of offshore shell companies, and received tens of millions of dollars in the 2009 federal bailout of the banking industry. His daughter, Democratic operative Emily Tisch Sussman, declared on MSNBC in September that “ if you still support Sanders over Warren, it’s kind of showing your sexism. ” As Democratic elites like the Sussmans braced for a Bernie Sanders triumph in Iowa, a mysterious piece of technology spun out by a group they su

A misunderstanding of social media is driving media elites to keep pushing an easily disprovable stereotype by Keith A. Spencer Part 2 - The skewed demographics of Twitter Twitter, unfortunately, informs the worldview of many of the country's most elite pundits, and some of its politicians too. Opinion columnists like David Brooks and Bret Stephens (both of the New York Times ) are excellent examples of pundits who, at various times, seem to see the world as refracted through the bluebird's drinking glass.  The problem is, Twitter is very much not a representative sample of the world. It is not a zeitgeist; it is not a cross-section of the population. It is hard to understand this, even for very smart people, because the corporation that runs Twitter tries very hard to make it seem like Twitter is the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end of every cultural and political conversation. But it is not true. However, the eponymous corporation behind Twi

Facebook isn’t the only Silicon Valley firm with partisan oversight of what we see: the bipartisan billionaire class and their security state have partnered with tech firms since the dawn of the internet to control the parameters of users’ thinking. by Morgan Artyukhina  Part 15 - Google fist-in-glove with the Democrats This is unsurprising, given Google’s extensive liberal leanings. Between 2004 and 2017, 90 percent of political donations from Google employees went to Democrats and in the 2018 and 2020 election cycles, Google’s parent holding company, Alphabet, Inc., gave 73 percent and 81 percent of its political contributions, respectively, to Democrats. Several of Google’s top figures flocked to Clinton’s 2016 campaign as well, including Stephanie Hannon, who went from being Google’s director of product management for civic innovation and social impact to being the Clinton campaign’s Chief Technology Officer, and Osi Imeokparia, who was Google’s Product Management

"Bernie Sanders is undeniably the strongest candidate against Donald Trump," tweeted journalist Walker Bragman. by Jake Johnson A national Reuters/Ipsos poll released Monday found Sen. Bernie Sanders leading President Donald Trump by 18 percentage points among independent voters in a hypothetical general election match-up, a result Sanders supporters viewed as evidence that the Vermont senator has the best chance of defeating the president in November. According to the new survey, Sanders has the support of 46% of registered independent voters while Trump polled at 28% support. The poll also showed former Vice President Joe Biden, Pete Buttigieg, Michael Bloomberg, and Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) ahead of Trump among independents, but Sanders' lead was the largest. " Bernie Sanders is undeniably the strongest candidate against Donald Trump, " tweeted journalist Walker Bragman in response to the new survey. The poll also found Sanders leading

Democracy Now! As New Hampshire kicks off primary voting in the 2020 election cycle, Senator Bernie Sanders is a clear frontrunner. His rallies in New Hampshire have seen huge turnout, especially among young people, and his message is resonating with a wide cross-section of the electorate, says Norman Solomon, co-founder and national coordinator of RootsAction.org . Sanders's success is all the more striking because of the hostility of the corporate media, which Solomon says has waged a " war on Bernie " for the last five years. " The Bernie Sanders campaign is up against the oligarchy, " says Solomon. " And that oligarchy's biggest and strongest arm are the corporate media outlets. "

Μετά από τέσσερα χρόνια νεοφιλελεύθερης λαίλαπας, το τοπίο καταστροφής θα έχει κάνει τη χώρα κυριολεκτικά αγνώριστη. Δεν μπορούσαμε όμως να φανταστούμε ότι η Μητσοτακική δεξιά θα παρήγαγε τέτοιο χάος σε τόσο μικρό διάστημα. Κι όμως, θα έπρεπε να το είχαμε προβλέψει.   Διότι ένα τέτοιο καθεστώς, που ουσιαστικά επιβλήθηκε με τη βοήθεια της μιντιακής χούντας μέσα από μια εικονική πραγματικότητα αδιάκοπης επικοινωνιακής προπαγάνδας, ήταν θέμα χρόνου να τα βρει σκούρα όταν θα προσγειώνονταν απότομα στον πραγματικό κόσμο.  Και το προσφυγικό ζήτημα ήταν αυτό που κυρίως επίσπευσε την αποκάλυψη της απόλυτης ένδειας του καθεστώτος και την πλήρη ανικανότητά του να χειριστεί σχεδ
